I have a real problem that none of my google calendars are showing up
on the calendar program. When I go to 'my calendars' an click on add,
there's nothing in the list for me to add to 'default' which appears
to be the non-synced local calendar. I have 4 calendars that I need to
sync. I tried making a new one to see if that made any difference - it
didn't.

I've tried clearing the calendar data and rebooting as per several
forum suggestions. I'm at a blank otherwise - is there some setting in
gcal that I'm missing - it's like none of the calendars are being
synced with the phone. The sync tick is ticked in the 'data sync'
settings screen...
